Where Peter Is
This website was created by a devoted group of Catholics who are increasingly worried about the criticisms aimed at Pope Francis and his teachings from within the Church. Throughout his time as pope, he has faced accusations from a small group of radical traditionalists and rigid dogmatists, who claim he spreads confusion, teaches falsehoods, and is even a heretic. Although the group opposing Francis is limited in size, it includes a mix of notable laypeople, priests, bishops, and cardinals. Many of his most vocal critics have strong platforms in various media, including print, television, and online. These critics often see themselves as the gatekeepers of Church teachings, labeling those who support the pope as dissenters from true Church doctrine. Since this faction is relatively small, many of their claims have not been adequately challenged. They express serious concerns, but those who support the pope often overlook or dismiss their arguments. In response to this situation, the writers on this site have chosen to confront these criticisms by sharing links to useful resources and offering original essays that defend the orthodoxy and faithfulness of Pope Francis. We also plan to discuss key themes and important issues facing the Church, particularly in the context of Pope Francis’s leadership. Where Peter is, there is the Church.

For nearly three weeks, Bishop Michael Martin of Charlotte has faced a barrage of criticism stemming from his efforts to implement Traditionis Custodes in his diocese. The backlash to his May 23 letter — which stated that, as of July 8, the number of locations offering the weekly celebration of the 1962 Roman Missal (often called the “Traditional Latin Mass” or TLM) will be reduced from four to one — has been widespread and fierce. The intensity seems to have decreased only recently.
